So the trip is 4 days away and its super real!
Getting ready for this trip has been an amazing learning experience. It has been a constant lesson in God's ability and willingness to provide. Every step of the way he has met the needs. When it was fund raising the money poured in, when it was patience the information didn't come yet(least fun lesson learned!), and when we needed a bus God was like hey I know some people who have a van! That's been pretty darn cool!
I have been blessed by the support of two different churches both in prayer and in finances. And its so encouraging to hear people say hey we are praying for you.
Im a little nervous. This is so far beyond anything I have done before that its not even funny. two years ago my idea of traveling was a trip to Branson and now my first plane ride is a short trip to AFRICA! Sometimes me and kids do not really get along that well so that's on my heart a little bit too. But above all I just have the anxious energy that I get before something big is about to happen. I am ready to go the anticipation is killing me!
Keep me in your prayers I will try and put up a blog while in Kenya and definitely some when I get back! Thank you for your support!
